Connecticut College

Connecticut College is an elite liberal arts school located in New London, CT, similar to Colby, Bates, Trinity and other NESCAC schools. Conn is generally known for its interdisciplinary studies (a.k.a. do whatever the hell you want), drama and dance, strong international program, and terrific professors. Not many people outside of the Northeast have heard of it, though it's often considered a safety for those that don't get into Ivy League schools. Despite that stigma, it's still better than most state schools, and has excellent academics.

Conn used to be ranked in the top 25 LACs during the early 2000s, however, the school has dropped off due to a presidential transition as well as a lackluster endowment (only been around since 1911 / used to be a women's college and women don't give money).

Recently the school has been on a $200 million fundraising campaign in order to beef its endowment and attract more applicants. Its acceptance rate hovers around 30%, making it one of the most selective schools in the country.

The social life is a harmonious synthesis of bros, artsy liberals, and stoners, though most people are pretty serious about academics. Nearly everyone is white, and almost half of the kids come from exclusive prep schools (Choate, Deerfield, MICDS). The girls are also pretty hot.

Not a bad place to be.

Connecticunt

An extremely pretentious, irritable woman from Connecticut. She only cares about designer labels and status symbols.

Connecticut Shooting

Truly one of the most horrific, painful, disgusting, despicable shootings in American history. 26 innocent people at Sandy Hook Elementary school murdered. 20 of them being kids. All of the adults murdered were women. Every kid that was murdered was 7 years old or younger. After hearing the story for the first time, you literally break down into tears crying and thinking about all the innocent little kids and teachers who were murdered. And all of the kids that DID survive the Connecticut Shooting will never be the same. They had to see real live dead bodies, blood, fear, tears, and so, SO much more hell than the average person would see in their lifetime. These poor kids are scarred for life. And imagine all of the parents, grandparents, friends, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. who lost loved ones in this shooting. Their lives will never be the same either. Everybody across America has been shaken by this tragic occurrence that took place on 12/14/12.

Connecticut

All of you who think that Connecticut is just where snobby rich kids come from, you're wrong. Yes, about half the people here are asses. But the other half are normal people who just want to live free of sterotypes! The good half of us drive regular cars, not beat up 20 year old cars, but not BMWs and Mercades. We aren't super poor, or super rich. The averages may say that we are one of the richest, but that doesn't mean all of us are rich.
Shut the fuck up about Connecticut being super rich snobs or out of the way hicks. We have a diverse population just like any other state. You ignorant bitches are just listening to sterotypes.
